Fulham's Simon Davies suffers injury setback

Fulham midfielder Simon Davies has suffered a setback on his return from injury.

The 31-year-old was said to have been close to full fitness following a knee problem, but will now be out for a number of months.

"Simon has a pretty tough injury," said Fulham manager Martin Jol. "He will be out for the next couple of months.

"It is a technical thing. It could be four to five months."

Fulham host Newcastle United tomorrow in the Premier League.
